Monday would have been Paul Newman's 90th birthday. Here's my 5 favorite Paul Newman movies.
1. Slap Shot - perhaps the best sports movie ever.
2. The Sting - a classic but these days seems a little long
3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
4. Cool Hand Luke
5. (tie) The Verdict (tie) Absence of Malice
Just missing the list was The Hustler.
The first time I saw Slap Shot was at a smoker for the Gamma Nus at Illinois College in 1980. They had an actual film. It was followed by Tangerine (XXX). They were a classy bunch.
